New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

I think that positivity should be held onto, considering the results of their previous research. It has real potential, even though some results are more positive than others.

I have no idea how a device like this would be obtained or produced, and the vagueness around it seems to be a reflection of how far on the frontier of medicine tinnitus treatments still are.

I don't see the delay as anything negative when it comes to the device's potential to help us. I also don't believe that something reaching the market quickly means it is effective. Just look at Lenire. It rushed onto the market, and it is not something I would even consider trying. The same goes for many of the obvious scam treatments. Unfortunately, it is not hard to find someone willing to take advantage of us and steal our money.

If we hear NOTHING by the end of this year, I'll start to worry.

The FDA is cutting staff and losing reputable researchers left and right. The top vaccine researcher just resigned because the head of the agency literally believes in discredited pseudoscience and is pushing the FDA to adopt it.

The person in charge is an anti-vaxxer and the kind of person who seriously suggests that "sunlight and eating right" are all you need, while the EPA is being dismantled and deregulated at the same time. If you think RFK Jr.'s neurological issues are concerning because of his dysphonia, wait until you see what happens to Americans in the coming decades. Measles had been practically eradicated by the year 2000.

They clearly do not care about people who are not wealthy. The only chance anything would change is if RFK Jr., the former president, or Melania developed tinnitus.

The medical device dept. of the FDA has NOT been cut.
